Security readout for executives and security teams
This issue affected Drupal sites using the contributed Password policy module. Certain older 6.x-1.x and 7.x-1.x releases could expose password hashes on the network during client-side password history checks. An attacker able to sniff relevant traffic could capture hashes, increasing account compromise risk. Exposure is limited to Drupal deployments using the contributed Password policy module in the affected version ranges. Sites not using this module, or already on 6.x-1.5 or 7.x-1.3 or later, are not indicated as affected by the provided sources. Treat as a targeted legacy Drupal risk. It is not listed as actively exploited in the supplied evidence, but password hash exposure can materially increase account takeover risk where vulnerable sites remain in service. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Password policy 6.x-1.x to 6.x-1.5 or later.; Upgrade Password policy 7.x-1.x to 7.x-1.3 or later.; Check the referenced Drupal advisories before applying production changes..
